Projection: need to automatically qualify

Oral Roberts' résumé is defined by a couple of bright spots and a string of damaging defeats, many of them on the road against Power Five opposition and a decisive home loss to Belmont that undercuts its profile. The neutral win over Kennesaw and the home victory over Montana State stand out as the team's best moments while the narrow result against Tulsa shows they can hang in games, yet road blowouts at Oklahoma State and Oklahoma and difficult trips to FGCU and Weber State leave them thin on quality wins away from home. With key road dates still pending at Missouri State and TCU and a stretch of conference home opportunities against North Dakota and Missouri KC balanced by road tests at North Dakota State and South Dakota State, the margin for error is small and the clearest path to the postseason runs through strong showings down the stretch and a conference title.
